The #Frontier DSL repair guy showed up yesterday morning. The Internet and phone service were shut down for about an hour while he rewired a connection box over on Toepher Rd. to put us on a different circuit. The speed hasnt been any better but at least the connection stays up for a few hours at a time before resetting. The repair guy and I talked a bit and he made a lot of technical sounding excuses about why the heat makes our connection act up but all I heard was that the phone company is too damn cheap to replace the worn out wires. Not his fault I realize, but it disturbed me to hear him making excuses and trying to cover for their greed.

This is a pet peeve of mine too. The Repugs have this way of changing words just a bit to give their own verbal slant to them and this topic is one of the most glaring.
